Rijeka vs Sparta Prague Prediction & Tips
Last season’s Croatian champions began their European campaign in the Champions League qualifiers, but were eliminated in the second round by Ludogorets. The team was sent to the UEL, where it beat Shelbourne before being knocked out by PAOK Thessaloniki in the playoffs after winning the first leg. The Croatians lost the away leg 0-5. Then, in their debut in the main phase of the UECL, they lost again – 0-1 away to FC Noah (Armenia).
Sparta Prague are now coming off a run of six games without defeat in all competitions. They had four consecutive wins in the league, followed by a draw in the local derby with Slavia. The team was expected to bounce back at the end of the week in the match against the much more modest Slovack, but they failed to beat them either. However, they remain in first place, one point ahead of their rivals.
FIRST HALF DRAW @ 2.15
